"Hey! Not yet!" Divya continued looking through the gifts.

"But it will happen soon!" Divya just hummed at Shikhar's response.

After about 3 hours of checking more than 15 shops, Divya could still not figure out a good gift.

"I need to use the washroom, wait here!" Shikhar said before going away.

Divya was frustrated because she could not find the perfect gift she imagined. After roaming in the shop for another 15 mins, she found the perfect gift she wanted.

"Did you find it?" Shikhar asked a grinning Divya.

"Found the one!" Divya said pointing at a bronze sculpture of twin girls.

"That's so cute and perfect!" Shikhar smiled.

"Let's get it!"

After paying, both Shikhar and Divya walked out exhausted.

"Wanna eat first madam?" Shikhar asked.

"Yes! I can eat a car now!" Divya said patting her slim tummy.

"Oh no! Is my car in danger?" Shikhar teased.

"Not if you feed me well darling!" Divya teased Shikhar back.

"Okay, let's go fill that tummy of yours sweetheart!"

They walked to the food court and chose a table near the indoor waterfall.

"McDonald's or Burger King?" Shikhar asked.

"Get me 2 kids meal from McDonald's!" Divya said hunching down into the chair.

"Okay kid!"

"I am not a kid!"

"Not a kid but ordering kid's meal?" Shikhar mumbled walking to wait in the que.

"I heard that you idiotic darling of mine!" Shikhar just chuckled and walked away.

"Here! Dig in sweetheart!" Shikhar produced the food after 10 minutes.

They ate in comfortable silence. It felt as if their silence could speak to eachother.

"What is in that cover?" Divya asked as she saw a small cover in Shikhar's hand.

"That's a gift for my sister!" Shikhar said.

After eating, they went into the car and decided to call it a day. It was late at night. Shikhar and Divya drove through the woods to reach quicker.

Shikhar was a good driver and knew the routes like the back of his palm. They drifted into wonderful conversations bringing them closer.

Everything was fone until the car haulted.

"What happened Shikar?" Divya was panicking.

"Hey, let me check!" Shikhar got out and checked out the wheels before going onto check the engine.

"The battery is down!" Shikhar said.

"What? Your car runs on batteries?" Divya asked.

"You know nothing about cars, don't you?" Shikhar slightly smiled and shook his head.

"It's not the time to tease me!"

"I know but we have to walk for really long before getting to the nearest garage!"

"Let me calk Romi!"

"I will call Bhaiya!"

"There is no range!" Both Shikhar and Divya said together.

"This means-" Shikhar started.

"We are stranded!" Divya finished.
